Cons
Con Not all readers are high quality
All the readers are volunteers - people who clearly love the books, but unfortunately some recordings are very low-quality, jump around in volume, or are difficult to understand.
Some books offer different readers, but often a book has only been read by a single volunteer. For books with multiple options, you may have to jump between them to finally find who works for you.
Con Advertisement supported
The advertisements usually shown when the vehicle is at rest, and they cover the entire screen. There is no way to get rid of them, it's strictly a free ad supported app.
Con Very high battery consumption
This app literally DRAINS your mobile. With an iPhone 6s, one can drive just a couple of hours before running out of battery.
Con Can freeze up when connected to Apple Play
Especially on iPhone 6s and Toyota Highlander 2020 pairing.
Bad routes, slow to determine where one is in a few locations (for example, exiting the highway and the exit is located lower than the highway).
